Achieving Minimal Heat Conductivity by Ballistic Confinement in Phononic Metalattices
Weinan Chen, Disha Talreja, Devon Eichfeld +14
Controlling the thermal conductivity of semiconductors is of practical interest in optimizing the performance of thermoelectric and phononic devices. The insertion of inclusions of…
Phonon Quantum Phase Transition
Ricardo Pablo-Pedro, Nina Andrejevic, Yoichiro Tsurimaki +5
We show that a quantum phase transition can occur in a phonon system in the presence of dislocations. Due to the competing nature between the topological protection of the dislocat…
Losses in plasmonics: from mitigating energy dissipation to embracing loss-enabled functionalities
Svetlana V. Boriskina, Thomas Alan Cooper, Lingping Zeng +7
Unlike conventional optics, plasmonics enables unrivalled concentration of optical energy well beyond the diffraction limit of light. However, a significant part of this energy is…
Theory of Electron-Phonon-Dislon Interacting System - Toward a Quantized Theory of Dislocations
Mingda Li, Yoichiro Tsurimaki, Qingping Meng +4
We provide a comprehensive theoretical framework to study how crystal dislocations influence the functional properties of materials, based on the idea of quantized dislocation, nam…
Lattice dynamics model calculation of Kapitza conductance at solid-fluid interfaces
Sanghamitra Neogi, Gerald D. Mahan
Existing theoretical models of the interfacial thermal conductance, i.e., Kapitza conductance, of insulating solid-fluid interfaces only consider bulk properties, e.g., acoustic mi…
Pair Distribution Function of a Square-Well Fluid
Sanghamitra Neogi, Gerald D. Mahan
The properties of the ground state of liquid He are studied using a correlated basis function of the form . Here, is chosen as the exact solution…
